Deep Mining

Deep mining is the process of extracting minerals, metals, or other geological materials from underground deposits that are located far beneath the Earth's surface. It involves creating tunnels or shafts to reach these deep resources, often requiring advanced machinery and safety measures. This method is used when surface mining isn't feasible or economical, especially for valuable ores found deep underground. Deep mining allows access to rich deposits while minimizing surface disturbance, but it also involves higher costs and technical challenges due to the depths involved.
